134. A Chance to Test your Word Order Skills
In this post, I have added below a couple of sentences giving you a chance to test yourself on your knowledge of German word order. Just a couple of things to remember .....
S V P A N A PP I holds good about 98% of the time - you will find exceptions!!!
The Verb MUST be the 2nd idea in the clause, not necessarily the 2nd word.
Any word / phrase can come first (for emphasis) but the subject follows the verb
In a question, the verb comes 1st
As in English, with adverbs, a general concept precedes a specific idea (tomorrow at 8:00)
QUIZ ... Rearrange into good German word order the following jumbled sentences.
1 kein Auto mein Vater hat.
2 ist der Computer phantastisch.
3 heute Wurst und Salat kaufen wir.
4 gesehen gestern einen guten Film wir haben.
5 ich morgen ein tolles Buch kaufen will.
6 wir jedes Wochenende Tennis spielen.
7 du schwimmen gut kannst ?
8 In Australien regnet im Winter oft es.
9 ins Kino mitkommen nächste Woche du möchtest ?
